Sheet Pan Salmon Dinner

Welcome SHEET PAN DINNERS! One pan with everything on it, one cook time, set it and forget it cooking, and clean-up like a breeze! These dinners are a miracle! One of my favourite one pan dinners is lemon, garlic salmon and veggies!

Ingredients

1lbof wild-caught salmoncut into fillets

1bushel of asparagus

½tsp.dried dill1tbsp of fresh dill

½tsp.garlic powder1-2 cloves of fresh garlic

2-3tbsp.of extra virgin olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

½lemonthinly sliced

Instructions

Preheat your oven t 425F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper

Wash and cut your veggies of choice, asparagus.

Ensure if you are using a root vegetable, such as sweet potatoes, that you slice them very thin so they cook the same time as everything else on the pan.

On one side of the sheet pan, spread all your veggies, drizzle with olive oil and seasonings

I used garlic, salt and pepper

On the second side of the sheet pan, place your salmon fillets, drizzle with olive oil and spices

I used garlic, salt, pepper and dill

Take lemon slices and place 1-2 on each salmon fillet

If you do not have fresh lemon slices, sprinkle salmon fillets with some lemon juice instead.

Place entire pan in the oven and forget it for 20 minutes!

After 20 minutes, check the salmon for doneness. If it flakes easily with a fork and is no longer opaque, it is finished. At this point the veggies should be done as well. If you are using root veggies and they are not yet tender, you can return them to the oven for an extra 5-10 minutes until fork tender.
